Spring Training Game #18: Jason Hammel vs. Ryan Rowland-Smith
by Rox Girl on Mar 18, 2010 11:52 AM MDT
in Rockies Game Threads
Email
PrintFor the Rockies, expect Hammel to get quite a few innings as the team stretches out its starters more, but Esmil Rogers, Matt Daley, Juan Rincon and Andrew Johnston are also listed in the press pass as scheduled to pitch in Peoria this afternoon. The game's supposed to be available both via MLB.TV and Gameday Audio, although being in Peoria also means we'll likely get live updates with MLB Gameday rather than the inning by inning mode most of the games come in.
I'll be paying attention, but probably won't comment much myself, as it's a rare sunny afternoon in Cincinnati, and I want to take as much advantage of that as possible. Also, I have to finish reading a Dostoevsky story for research, so if I sound glum and misanthropic in my comments, blame the Russians.

Though sadly, it’s also on FSNWest, which is going to be the default feed for MLBTV today (I don’t have premium), so I’ll be stuck watching the Mariners feed.

Giambi will knock Paulk out of the way in nothing flat
I suspect Giambi is DH’ing since the other team has one
New decade, new result: time for a Rockies' division championship.
Almost definitely Giambi as DH.
He must have been distracted by watching Alanna eat pork rinds.

I don't find her attractive.
Even if I did, I don’t watch baseball to look at pretty girls. She’s just a tool for FSN to add “flavor” to the broadcast. If they want to hire a female broadcaster just for having eye candy’s sake, at least hire one who knows what she’s talking about.
(I know I’m often ranting about Alanna, but she annoys me like George annoys so many of you.)

Naw.
Just because I debate with you doesn’t mean I’m angry with you. One thing you’ll have to realize about me is that I’m used to giving my opinion on everything. It’s basically what I do for a living. Many (most) people may shy away from argumentative discussion out of fear that it represents hostility, or that it will lead to uncontrollable fights. Trust me, that’s not my intent. No need for you to feel worried about it, it’s normal behavior from me. :)

I'm very similar in real life, but I think it may be harder to get my vibe online.
Very few people find me hostile when I debate with people in real life (I’m really not an intimidating person at all), but online, I may more easily be mistaken as an argumentative angry jerk who hides behind my veil of anonymity.

This is what is fun for me.
I learn a lot from people who tell me why I am wrong. If I didn’t ask, I’d just be stubbornly ignorant. Do you have any idea how much I’ve learned from my fellow Rowbots about baseball that I wouldn’t have learned if I hadn’t made a complete fool of myself trying to argue with them?

She's a distraction from the game because that's essentially her job.
At least she seems to like baseball, which is better than a lot of the on-field color women in broadcast.

“She’s a distraction from the game because that’s essentially her job.”
Yes, I know. See above. That’s exactly why I am angry to the point of being offended by her presence in the broadcast.
The whole point I’m trying to make is that there shouldn’t BE “on-field color women”. There are probably many female broadcasters out there who can do more than just look pretty. Find one of them. I don’t care if all the horny men are disappointed by the lack of a pretty girl to stare at. Get someone who contributes relevant stuff, or get no one at all, is my stance.

And she's not that big of a distraction.
I mean, they don’t devote a large portion of the broadcast to her. And besides, she so pretty.
It's a completely subjective determination on my part that she's a big distraction.
I don’t expect everyone else to agree. She just REALLY bothers me.

I guess I’m in the boat that nobody on the FSN broadcasts annoys me that much. George can get going, sure, but I can usually tune him out. And there are little tidbits from the road parks that Alanna’s good for.
Mainly I can’t stand when the commentators are flat out wrong, and rarely does that happen with the FSN team. Usually see more of that in football anyway, but when there are close calls or something when the announcers are just not seeing the same thing I am and they refuse to admit there might be a little wiggle room.
And the dude for the Nuggets who is way to homerish with the foul calls gets old, FSN guys aren’t too bad there.

Has there ever been one who’s any good?
I’m thinking Chris Balcom-Miller will be the first.

Usually, MLB.TV Basic just let’s you see the home feed (which in this case would be FSNWest). I was commenting that in Spring Training, it looks like I get to choose my feed, even without premium. You’d still need MLB.TV Basic.

but this probably does make Herrera or Chris Nelson the more likely call-ups should Tulo get injured.
If that happens, we’re pretty much screwed for the season, of course.
If we lose Tulo for the season maybe

yeah, if any infielder besides Tulo (and maybe Barmes) gets injured, EY2 probably will get the call
But if it’s Tulo, I could see the team going with a true shortstop instead.

shortstop or catcher?
I really doubt we’ve ever had only one of either of those positions, and imagine you’d be hard pressed to find any team in the last 20 years that’s taken that risk.
Catcher certainly no, but I don't know why Tulo getting injured affects that at all.
The lowest depth I can remember having at SS was early 07 with Tulo, Carroll.

Still that's two, not one
By bringing up catchers, I’m pointing out that these are the two positions teams will always have defensive depth for. I’m sure you could probably find some exceptions, but it will be incredibly rare.
I certainly agree on catcher.
I understand the reasoning behind it, don’t worry. In fact, in many ways I agree. Nelson would be an easy callup as he is already on roster.

I was in my second year in college. School was canceled for 4 days or so. I don’t remember it being very cold, but the snow was very deep, and was unusual snow for Colorado – it was fairly wet, not the dry feathery stuff we usually get. We jumped off of stuff into it.

That happens when your net accessibility is fluctuating.
You load part of the site, then it stops, then it loads more, etc. It’s happened to me. Check your network’s bandwidth and connection speed..
